We have significant operations that would be adversely impacted in the event of war, political disruption, civil disturbance, economic and legal sanctions or changes in global trade policies. We are involved in several governmental and internal investigations, which are costly to conduct, have resulted in a loss of revenue and may result in substantial financial penalties. Our significant operations in foreign countries expose us to currency fluctuation risks. Uninsured claims and litigation could adversely impact our results. Customer credit risks could result in losses. The capital financing necessary to fund growth may not be available to us at economic rates. A terrorist attack could have a material and adverse effect on our business. Changes in tax laws could adversely impact our results. The anticipated benefits of moving our principal executive offices to Switzerland may not be realized, and difficulties in connection with moving our principal executive offices could have an adverse effect on us.
